I love London in the rare parts of the year when it's quiet, and no time is more reliably quiet than the week between Christmas and New Year.
Celebrate what you want to see more of.
More than 150 heads of state attended the UN Summit, giving New Yorkers a chance to get in touch with prejudices they didn't even know they had.
Life doesn't get more real than having a newborn at home.
I enjoy smaller projects, especially by newcomers, where there is more energy than on bigger productions. And there's the pleasure of seeing the final result.
Even to current-events junkies, the notion of a 24-hour news channel sounded like a gimmick when the Cable News Network launched more than 30 years ago.
If the breaking news story had to do with hard news, politics specifically, I had a lot to do with it. If it had to do with music, Kurt Loder was more involved.

I try to be an ethical, moral person and a nice person, and I like to have that reflected in my comedy. I'm not a mean comedian, and I don't think that my comedy is mean.

I actually find it's more interesting to play in the niches and find ways to apply technology to relatively straightforward problems.
I needed Nick Saban more than I needed Pete Carroll.
If I had a nickel for every time I said 'Why me?' I'd have probably said 'Why me?' more often.
Nicknames are the most essential in life, more valuable than names.
That was when Neil discovered Jack Nietzsche. They went off and pretty much came up with that by themselves, but I thought it was a great song, and I was more than happy to do my harmony parts on it.
On average, the Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese are more similar to each other and are different from Australians, Israelis and the Swedes, who in turn are similar to each other and are different from Nigerians, Kenyans, and Jamaicans.
I always wished for this, but it's almost turning into more of a nightmare than a dream.
